Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 456: Jiang Xue Returns

"Old man, don’t be angry. It was our mistake, we meant well and didn’t want you to worry. We forgot that you have a wide network, which would make finding someone easier." Father Jiang sincerely apologized to Mr. Mu, acknowledging their oversight.

They just hoped Xue’er was alright, otherwise, it would be their fault.

"Good that you understand!"

After speaking, Mr. Mu looked at Mu Siwu and said, "Tell me, what exactly happened?"

Originally, Mu Siwu didn’t want to say anything, but under Mr. Mu’s stern gaze, he finally recounted the events.

After hearing him out, Mr. Mu’s eyes were blazing with anger, and he fiercely glared at him, saying, "How could you let Xue’er go with them?"

"Old man, don’t blame the in-laws. Those people were targeting Xue’er, so even if the in-laws stayed, it wouldn’t help. Besides, there’s Little Reunion to consider." Father Jiang, seeing Mr. Mu getting angry at Mu Siwu, hurriedly tried to mediate.

The father and son’s relationship wasn’t good to begin with; what if it worsened because of this?

"Right, old man, Ming Feng is correct. Those people came for Xue’er, having others there wouldn’t help and might only become leverage against Xue’er." Mrs. Jiang also chimed in.

Persuaded by Father and Mrs. Jiang, Mr. Mu didn’t blame Mu Siwu anymore but instead asked, "You mentioned someone went to rescue Xue’er? Do you have a phone number? Call to check how things are going now."

Upon hearing this, Mu Siwu picked up Jiang Xue’s phone but didn’t know how to use it, so he handed it to Mr. Mu and said, "I can’t make a call; you dial it. His name is Liu Yongfa, Xue’er probably saved his number."

Mr. Mu glanced at Mu Siwu, took the phone, and dialed. Before the call connected, there was some movement at the door.

"Listen, what’s that sound?"

"Someone’s knocking!"

"Go and see if Xue’er has returned."

Father Jiang spoke as he quickly ran to the door and opened it. Once the door was open, he looked outside and, indeed, Jiang Xue had returned. His spirits lifted immediately.

"Old man, in-laws, Xue’er is back." Father Jiang, filled with joy, shouted to the people in the house.

"Really, Xue’er is back?" Upon hearing this, everyone immediately headed to the door.

Seeing that Jiang Xue was indeed back, they couldn’t help but rejoice.

"Dad, Mom, Grandpa!" At this moment, Mu Qiancheng appeared behind Jiang Xue, calling out to everyone. Only then did they notice Mu Qiancheng had also returned.

As a result, the family became even happier. However, seeing the swelling on Jiang Xue’s face, their hearts ached.

"Xue’er, how did you get hurt?"

"Xue’er, who hit you?"

As they asked, they sat back in the living room. Once seated, Mrs. Jiang and Bai Yuhua gathered around Jiang Xue, speaking compassionately, "Xue’er, you’ve suffered."

"It’s nothing!" Jiang Xue shook her head and then looked at everyone with an apologetic face, saying, "I’m sorry for making you worry."

"Xue’er, it’s good that you’re okay." Seeing that besides her face, she was uninjured, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"By the way, Xue’er, do you know who hurt you?" Mr. Mu asked. Before Jiang Xue could answer, Mu Qiancheng, who had been sidelined, spoke up, saying, "It was Ming Lan!"

"Ming Lan? From the Ming Family?" Mr. Mu frowned slightly, being aware of the happenings with the Ming Family in Beijing. He also knew it was his eldest grandson who got involved.
